System saves millions of litres – Colac Herald

An article in the Colac Herald (Victoria) reports that “an Irrewarra farmer has saved about 10-15 million litres of water after the farmer started using new technology to measure water use”. The technology referred to is the Taggle Systems network recently installed as part of a trial with Barwon Water. According to Bruce Bilney “The first thing I do of a morning is check our water use.” “It’s enabled me to track our water usage on an hourly basis, and know when the cattle actually drink.” Mr. Bilney’s farm was one of the first 25 farms to trial the technology with the help of Barwon Water’s Tom McDonald.
